The way to heaven is on horseback

So yesterday I told you all that I had been working on a project with mount board for my photography and now I'm going to tell you all what the project was and share some fun snow pictures that I have got, I love how snow looks, just don't like how it interferes with things!  The project that I was doing was mounting and framing some photographs using three different colours of mount board. The colours had to fit in with my room, purple, peach, beige and brown (although one day I want to paint my walls chocolate brown and hot pink), so the colours my mum chose (she did it as a suprise) where beige, chocolate brown and gold! I then wanted to double mount them so that It had effectively two windows, the first that showed my picture and the second that showed a thin amount of gold! I'm really happy with how they've turned out, and if you want to know more about how I did them please ask. These pictures were picked strategically the one above was the last time I j...

Well seen as there is nothing going on for me in the horse world today I thought that I would do the blog hop now, and probably a smaller post later just about my day in general, random thoughts you know the normal kind of thing that I tend to do. So while I was reading some blogs I noticed that Equestrian At Hart and Viva Carlos had done a blog hop that had been started by Collegial Equestrian and thought why not I might as well join in too soo here goes.   So here goes the theme is Share a memory from:  The first horse experience that you can remember.  Your first 'aha' moment - when something really clicked for you as a rider. Entering the Ring. Could be your first show, or another time when simply entering the arena could be considered a 'debut' of sorts.   Here are my answers:- The first horse experience that I can remember, was seeing horses and always wanting to stroke them and getting my mum to pull over at the side of the road next...

Today I have chosen to use my riding pictures that my mum has spent taking for me over the years, and tell you a bit about each photo, I'm not sure how many photo's I intend to do at the start of this post but I will warn you all in advance that this could possibly be a long post with plenty of pictures of all the horses that I have the pleasure to ride, this will very from horse's that I have rode when I was young to horses that I still ride to this day like Jake. Also to let you all know I will be posting pictures of some of my textiles work tomorrow so you can all let me know what you think and you can see what I have spent my time doing so far this summer holiday. Right on to the main part of my post PHOTOGRAPHS!   First off is Gatsby, Gatsby is a horse that I have been riding since the beginning of January but that I have instantly fallen in love with and have been riding him ever since, this was the week before my last lesson when we were working on jump...

Hey guys, Before I went to bed, I thought i'd tell you more about my day. :) as i said I would earlier. Today's been a pretty normally day for the most of it i suppose you could say, I had art for two hours this morning (A-level) which as much as I'm knackered I was glad about as my dead line is coming up on Friday lunch time will be glad when its over then I have two weeks off and then I will be starting doing my second year of A level work. I also had an hour of philosophy which I'm starting to get its only taken a year but I'm starting to get my head around it you never know one day it might make complete sense but I doubt it. But on to the best part of my blog the part i am sure you are the most interested in, my horse part. So today was a good day for my riding whilest I didnt get to ride (not riding til Saturday too far away!) I worked on learning my dressage test the first one of two that I am going to be doing I found it okay to learn but I have a few qu...
